The fun is now over and eggs are painted, so now it’s time to look at the table filled with various cakes by several online distributors.

So if you’re interested, grab something.
Steam is giving away Borderlands and it’s four pack with 50% discount. So, who was waiting for discount, here is your chance :) If you don’t mind 1$ = 1€ politics, because price is same for US and EU, only currency is different: US: $49.99 $24.99 / UK: £29.99 £14.99 (8% lower) / EU: 49,99€ 24,99€ (36% higher). But at least it is better deal than 50€…
Impulse added 8 items 6 items are available for non-US/Canada. Check them out here: Bob Came in Pieces, Beyond Divinity, Crusaders – Thy Kingdom Come, and permadeals, which are always on the “deal”: THQ Ultimate Bundle, World War 2: Time of Wrath, Alganon.
GamesPlanet has totally messed up their homepage, but still they are offering GTA IV (£19.99 £9.99) and Civilization IV (£39.99 £19.99).

All of them with 50% discount except The Guild 2, which has 75% discount. I start to like this shop :)
GameTap is also offering Borderlands for $24.98. So.. here is your chance :) (Btw, somehow I saw only once this price, and it was reseted back to $49.95, so seems like GameTap page is filled with bugs.)

US: $19.99 $5.00 / UK: £14.99 £3.75 (12% higher) / EU: 15,99€ 4,–€ (7% higher). Get it now, lots of them and save for friends! Who doesn’t know, what or who Torchlight is, then check the review here.

So that’s all, folks.
Have fun, don’t spend too much and raise a glass for me! :)
We Want Live – about to receive an answer? (THEY DID!)
There’s a hope for Polish XboX Live and Games For Windows Live. As far as I know the creators of WWL are about to receive an official statement from Microsoft head quarters in USA.
Too bad Microsoft waited a month to do this… We will post more details here as soon as we know something.
UPDATE:
Here’s an official Microsoft statement about XboX Live sevice in Poland:
Xbox is very committed to the Polish market and is appreciative of the passion and excitement that our community of users show for our products, including Xbox LIVE. This year, 2010, is going to be a historic year for Xbox and our aim is to bring to our Polish community of users the full and best interactive experiences possible on the Xbox 360. We currently finalizing our plans for the Polish market that we will become public at the forthcoming E3 consumer trade show, later in June. Our Polish community of Xbox users should expect to hear more about how we will take the Xbox 360 experience to another level in Poland.
They didn’t even bother to sign the freaking letter (no one knows who wrote this, it just says Microsoft). I say fuck them and their legal games in Poland, just don’t buy new XboX 360 games if your country isn’t supported – like the upcoming Bad Company 2 (a 100% multiplayer game which has no…multiplayer).
I’ll get back to laughing now! :)
Less than a day left for Microsoft to respond!
That’s right, it’s less than a day for Microsoft to respond on the lack of XboX Live and Games For Windows Live in Poland (and the most of central, eastern European countries). I wonder if they’re going to send anything at all, at least an e-mail?
We’ll see!
Games For Windows Live Sale!
A very nice weekend sale on Games For Windows Live has just started, the first title is: Batman: Arkham Asylum for only $12.49 (75% off!)
More games coming on next weekends. More information can be found here.
Warning! Games For Windows Live is NOT supported in some countries.
The Clock Is Ticking
Microsoft has exactly 27 days, 6 hours, 14 minutes and 34 seconds while I write this. 27 days for what you say? Well you probably heard about We Want Live group. They sent a letter to Microsoft and gave them 30 days to respond to their demands for the XboX Live service in Poland (Games For Windows Live too I guess). If your country doesn’t have Live too simply go to their website and see what you can do for you country!
Will Microsoft have the balls to answer? We will find out soon.
We Want Live: Launches in English!

The voice of Polish XboX 360 gamers is even louder thanks to their refreshed website and language version of the site.
If you want Live in your country join their cause and maybe in near future the community will force Microsoft to bring Live to Central and Eastern Europe!
Microsoft has 30 days to answer Polish players
Microsoft encouraged Polish players to buy original games (without multiplayer support and Live features) and stop modding their consoles. XboX players who are responsible for the revolt-ish website contacted Microsoft Poland and…
Here’s what the kontrakcja.pl site owner posted on their site (translated freely by me):
“We’re after talking to Microsoft Poland. (…) We live, we are well and continue to attack! It turns out (which was already a little known, but now we know for 100%), Microsoft Poland has nothing to say on the presence of the Live in Poland. Well ok, since they do not someone else decides, and now to that “someone” will turn.
How do we do it? First of all – along with Microsoft Poland. They promised to help players find the right contact! In few days we’ll put a set of materials directed to the people actually responsible for the Live and it’s absence and screwing players.
For the first time, we the players will create a raport. From the moment we pass the materials concerning Live absence in Poland to Microsoft, they will have 30 days to respond. Exactly after the 30 days we will see if Microsoft’s Poland word is worth anything, as well as Redmond to see what they have to say. Give them a chance – if the response is poor we won’t get anything at all then we will take this action to a next level. We must exhaust all possibilities and that’s what we do.
Also we have to go and change the graphic layout, English version of the site (if we leave the topic to the world, we must speak their language, otherwise they won’t understand), and finally WeWantLive.com address.
What else is going to change? Nothing! We want to continue what you wanted – Live in Poland, we still have the same arguments (see section “Important Questions”). (…)”
I can’t wait to see how it all turns out! :-) If you want Live in your country as well simply contact those people and try to contact Microsoft too.
Microsoft to sell PC games over Games For Windows
Microsoft has announced that on December 15th, Games on Demand comes to Games for Windows Live, which means they are going to start digitally distributing PC games.
The Xbox 360 Games on Demand program has been doing well enough, and services like Stardock’s Impulse and Steam have already proven the viability of the digital download store model, so now we’re getting Games on Demand for Games for Windows Live.
"With Games on Demand, we didn’t just want to create a cut-and-paste version of existing digital distribution services," said Mike Ybarra, general manager of LIVE Engagement Services. "We challenged ourselves to deliver an integrated platform that takes full advantage of the unique capabilities offered by the LIVE service. Our goal has always been to create a seamless online gaming experience for the Windows community, and Games on Demand is a great step toward that end."
The main difference between Games on Demand and something like Steam is the use of Microsoft points to purchase games along with actual cash money, but it’s certainly a start. If they can keep prices competitive, they could be on to something.
Service’s launch lineup will include Resident Evil 5, Red Faction: Guerrilla, and Battlestations: Pacific, along with Live-enabled versions of popular downloadable titles like World of Goo and Osmos. If those aren’t enticing enough, there’s also a free Live-enabled version of Tinker, the Windows Vista Ultimate Extra exclusive for those willing to download the Games for Windows Live client when the service goes live on the 15th.
You can download the Games for Windows Live client at Microsoft’s official website.
